One hundred and twentieth chapters rather do escape
The emergency delivery shop is ten miles apart, unlike the inns set up at sixty miles apart, which is mostly important in the local area, and is far less particular than the inns. The so-called houses are just a few earthen houses.
In Gao Jin's memory, when he went to Shenmu Fort, he would occasionally make an incline along the way, just give him some silver or some copper coins, and he entered the dark earthen house with Fan Xiu'an, and Fan Xiu'an's entourage first went in to clean up.
After the two sat down, the shop chief came to accompany him. The old man dressed up by the shopkeeper just now made a lot of effort, more than half a tael of silver, which was more than enough to buy the forage from him.
"The two masters are so responsible. Our place is remote and there is no tea to entertain the two distinguished guests."
The shop looked about forty years old, nodding and bowing when he spoke, looking like a sophisticated waiter who was running in a tavern.
"You don't have to say hello here, just do your thing."
There are three emergency delivery shops along the way from Hekou Fort to Shenmu Fort. Gao Jin went to rest. I also heard Mulan talk about the origin of the soldiers in these emergency delivery shops. For example, the shop is now called Cao Hua, but in fact, it is only less than thirty years old, so I look so old.
"Yes, two of you are chatting slowly."
Cao Hua retreated tactfully, and there were no soldiers left in the house. The group of men was strong and powerful. Two leaders, one looked like the children of the Wu family and the other was like the rich master. He even brought servants to serve him when he went out. He hadn't seen this small place for a long time.
Cao Hua, the two big names, knew that they had a lot of talks. After leaving the house, he greeted Chen Sheng and the others enthusiastically, but no one paid attention to him. In the end, Zhang Kui couldn't stand it and took the words of the shop manager.
It was the first time that Zhang Kui followed Yang Dayan and the others to a place outside Hekou Fort. Everything was fresh. When he saw the shop manager surnamed Cao inquiring about their origin, he replied proudly, "My brother is a hundred households in Hekou Fort. This time he went to Shenmu Fort to report his merits."
"It turned out to be Gao Yanluo... no, he is Lord Gao Baihu."
Cao Hua was shocked. There were several merchants who had beaten him over the past month. He naturally heard the legend of Gao Yanluo. It was said that this high-ranking master was killing Xing Linfan. Several groups of horse thieves outside the frontier called this high-ranking master to destroy them. Those who committed crimes were stripped of clothes and inserted into wooden stakes. Many horse thieves were so scared that they did not dare to approach the ancient Beizhai.
...
By the wild woods not far from the urgent delivery shop, Ding Silang, who was pushing the cart, stopped and couldn't move forward. He still saw so many people coming from Cao Erlang, and those black-clad servants were all wearing armor and holding spears, which looked not easy to mess with.
With the idea that it is better to have less than more things, Ding Silang got rid of the idea of going to the delivery shop to rest, and planned to go to the village not far away to sell some goods first. He was just a peddler who carried a load to sell goods, so he should not get into trouble with the military officials.
Just when Ding Silang was about to turn around and leave, he heard an arrow roar, and then a buzzing arrow was inserted into the soil in front of the car. He was so scared that he immediately squatted down, and his hand was placed on the handle of the knife pressing under the cargo on the wheelbarrow.
"Stand up, move your hand away, and put it where you can see it."
Yang Dayan held the bow and shouted coldly at the faintly exposed head behind the wheelbarrow beside the wild woods ahead.
After getting off the horse and resting, Yang Dayan and several other partners wandered around. This was the rule they established outside the border. Whenever they stayed in the wild and rested, someone would pay attention to the movements around them.
Yang Da's eyes had the best eyesight, so he became the scout captain in his partner, and he was in charge of this warning.
"Good man, please spare me, the young man is not a bad guy."
Ding Silang let go of the hilt wrapped in white linen, then raised his hands, and slowly stood up from behind the wheelbarrow, cursing in his heart that he was not angry. Why did he meet such a strong man who is good at using bows?
A smile forced out on his face, and Ding Silang shouted, "Good man, the young man is really not a bad guy."
Yang Dayan did not put down his bow, and the arrow he was placing was only half full. If there was any abnormal movement on the other side, he could shoot the guy dressed in a peddler on the other side during his breath.
At this time, Yang Dayan's other two companions who heard the movement also rushed over. Seeing this scene, they couldn't help but say, "Yang Dayan, your tricks are so poisonous that you can see them so far!"
"This guy sneakily leaned over the woods, and he saw that he was not a good thing!"
When Yang Dayan saw his companion arrive, he brags proudly and half-put down the bow and arrow in his hand. However, Ding Silang, who was opposite, turned red when he heard these words, but he did not dare to refute, so he could only defend himself in a low voice.
"Several heroes, villains are just passing by and selling goods, they are really not bad guys."
The other two looked at the peddler who stood not far away, holding his hands, and didn't dare to breathe. They saw that this guy was not a few years older than them, looked quite strong and honest, and believed his words five points.
"Not a bad guy, what did you look at just now?"
Yang Dayan asked, and he actually realized that the peddler should not be a thief with the scissors, but he still shouted in words.
"My hero, I originally wanted to go to the emergency delivery shop in front to take a break, but I saw that there were too many people, so I was afraid I had no choice but to leave."
Ding Silang replied with a bitter face that the business of this peddler was very dangerous, especially those who were single-minded and slinging carts and carrying loads to the villages below were naturally not a pure person. He had a knife in his wheelbarrow, and he relied on some martial arts to come out to do this small profitable business.
"So what if there are too many people? We are not thieves, and we still like your things. I think you are obviously guilty..."
Yang Dayan was still striking, but at this time the other two companions who were watching the fun couldn't help laughing. One of them couldn't see Yang Dayan playing with the peddler who was so scared that his face turned pale. He couldn't help but say, "This big-eyed thief is scaring you, don't be afraid."
"Your surnamed Fang, you are too verbal. Why don't you know that he is a spy sent by the thief?"
Seeing Yang Dayan raising his argument, Fang Lei didn't even tempted him and said directly, "Okay, what kind of thieves can there be near this Shenmu Castle?"
"I think this guy is so scared by you!"
"What this hero said is that the villain is really not a spy. The head of the shop in front of me who was urgently handing over the shop can testify for me."
When Ding Silang saw someone talking to him, he shouted loudly, but Yang Dawei frowned and completely withdrew his bow. He said it through just to scare the unlucky peddler. Now that he has been exposed by his two companions, it would be boring to continue.
When he followed Yang Dayan and the others to leave, Ding Silang was still a little scared. Fortunately, he was not a thief, otherwise he would have to explain here. He pushed the wheelbarrow behind Yang Dayan and the others. Soon Ding Silang went to the earthen house of the urgent delivery shop and saw that Cao Erlang, an old acquaintance, was talking to a boy very happily, and then he felt completely relieved.
"Second Brother Cao, it's me."
Hearing the shouts, Cao Hua raised his head, and then saw Ding Silang, who was pushing the wheelbarrow and still had a pale face. He was shocked at first, but then he realized that this guy was afraid that he would be scared.
"Ding Si, why are you coming out to sell goods again? You are so brave enough, and you are not afraid of encountering a thief with a scissor to rob you."
Cao Hua knew Ding Si. After all, there were not many peddlers who had the courage to come out to the countryside to sell goods. Ding Si was quite kind in business and he bought some groceries in the shop with Ding Si.
"If you don't sell goods, you can collect some local products. If it's snowing all over the world, then..."
When he saw Cao Hua, Ding Silang answered, he looked at the black-clad servants and warriors nearby, and couldn't help asking, "Where did these heroes come from?"
"These are all subordinates of Gaobaihu, Hekoubao."
In front of Zhang Kui and the others, Cao Hua naturally did not dare to say anything about Gao Yanluo, but Ding Silang immediately understood that before he ran out, the name of Gao Baihu, the Hekou Fort was circulated in Shenmu Fort.
"What are you selling?"
Just after Cao Hua told Ding Silang that he was driving, Zhang Kui walked to the wheelbarrow with curiosity on his face. He grew up in Duntai and had never been to the fortress several times. He was very interested in the various miscellaneous items sold on this car.
"Sewer, thread, thread, wood comb brush, paper, pen, incense, candle, and villains are all here."
Ding Silang smiled all over his face, and at the same time opened the cargo box. There were indeed all kinds of items inside. After Zhang Kui glanced around, he found that they were all daily necessities and lost interest.
"Okay, you'll rest here, no one will take your stuff in vain."
Yang Dayan said, he had a reckless nature. Although he had been much calmer since he walked on the grassland, he was so innate that he deliberately scared Ding Silang. When he saw Ding Silang pick up a few objects and say he wanted to respect them, he refused to say.
Ding Silang was holding a few groceries and staying in the air. It was his first time to see the Jun Ye who was not filial to him. It was not until Cao Hua pulled him that he realized that he wanted to thank him but found that the fierce young Jun Ye had left.
"Stop, these soldiers will leave in a while."
Looking at Ding Silang who was a little stunned, Cao Hua reminded him that the young master Zhang had told him a lot of stories about Gao Yanluo, and he was very moved. He only hated that he was not from Hekou Castle, otherwise he would also be willing to work for this grand master. No, he could do it as a cow and horse!
Listening to the story of the high-ranking master Cao Hua said, Ding Silang was also stunned. He could not have imagined that there was such a hundred-family master in this world who actually paid wages for young and strong workers, and also provided food and accommodation.
"The people in this River Fort are so lucky!"
"Isn't that true? Alas, if I had known this, I wouldn't have been the leader of this Lao Shiba."
Cao Hua murmured to himself with some annoyance. The work of the urgent delivery shop was just passing on the official letters and emergency documents. However, in the border areas, especially close to the walls, it was very dangerous to do this work. After all, even if the emergency delivery shop was built along the official road, most of them were in remote wilderness, and maybe one day they would meet thieves.
